SIR UGHTRED KAY-SHUTTLE-WORTHasked the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education, When he proposes to introduce the Bill to continue the Endowed Schools Acts which expire on December 31st next; for how many years the Bill will renew these Acts; and, whether it will continue them without alteration?
§ LORD GEORGE HAMILTON,in reply, said, the Government intended to continue the Acts; but he could not exactly state when the Bill relating to their continuance would be introduced. Until it was introduced, he did not think it was desirable to go into the details; but he might state, as he had stated before, that the Government did not contemplate any change either in the constitution or authority of the Commission.
